      iavf: Create VLAN tag elements starting from the first element · c2417a7b
      Akeem G Abodunrin authored 
      This patch changes how VLAN tag are being populated and programmed into
the HW - Instead of start adding VF VLAN tag from the last member of the
element list, start from the first member of the list, until number of
allowed VLAN tags is exhausted in the HW.

      Jiri Pirko authored 
      Currently user is unable to delete the filter. See following example:
$ tc filter add dev ens16np1 ingress pref 1 handle 1 matchall action drop
$ tc filter show dev ens16np1 ingress
filter protocol all pref 1 matchall chain 0
filter protocol all pref 1 matchall chain 0 handle 0x1
  in_hw
        action order 1: gact action drop
         random type none pass val 0
         index 1 ref 1 bind 1

$ tc filter del dev ens16np1 ingress pref 1 handle 1 matchall action drop
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported

Implement tcf_proto_ops->delete() op and allow user to delete the filter.

      net: hns3: fix dereference of ae_dev before it is null checked · ad9bf545
      Colin Ian King authored 
      Pointer ae_dev is null checked however, prior to that it is dereferenced
when assigned pointer ops. Fix this by assigning pointer ops after ae_dev
has been null checked.

      Merge branch 'net-sched-act_ctinfo-fixes' · 43321251

      Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant says:

====================
net: sched: act_ctinfo: fixes

This is first attempt at sending a small series.  Order is important
because one bug (policy validation) prevents us from encountering the
more important 'OOPS' generating bug in action creation.  Fix the OOPS
first.

Confession time: Until very recently, development of this module has
been done on 'net-next' tree to 'clean compile' level with run-time
testing on backports to 4.14 & 4.19 kernels under openwrt.  It turns out
that sched: action: based code has been under more active change than I
realised.

During the back & forward porting during development & testing, the
critical ACT_P_CREATED return code got missed despite being in the 4.14
& 4.19 backports.  I have now gone through the init functions, using
act_csum as reference with a fine toothed comb and am happy they do the
same things.

This issue hadn't been caught till now due to another issue caused by
new strict nla_parse_nested function failing parsing validation before
action creation.

Thanks to Marcelo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> for flagging
extack deficiency (fixed in 733f0766 sched: act_ctinfo: use extack
error reporting) which led to b424e432 ("netlink: add validation of
NLA_F_NESTED flag") and 8cb08174 ("netlink: make validation more
configurable for future strictness”) which led to the policy validation
fix, which then led to the action creation fix both contained in this
series.

If I ever get to a developer conference please feel free to
tar/feather/apply cone of shame.

      Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant authored 
      Fix nla_policy definition by specifying an exact length type attribute
to CTINFO action paraneter block structure.  Without this change,
netlink parsing will fail validation and the action will not be
instantiated.

8cb08174 ("netlink: make validation more configurable for future")
introduced much stricter checking to attributes being passed via
netlink.  Existing actions were updated to use less restrictive
deprecated versions of nla_parse_nested.

As a new module, act_ctinfo should be designed to use the strict
checking model otherwise, well, what was the point of implementing it.

Confession time: Until very recently, development of this module has
been done on 'net-next' tree to 'clean compile' level with run-time
testing on backports to 4.14 & 4.19 kernels under openwrt.  This is how
I managed to miss the run-time impacts of the new strict
nla_parse_nested function.  I hopefully have learned something from this
(glances toward laptop running a net-next kernel)

There is however a still outstanding implication on iproute2 user space
in that it needs to be told to pass nested netlink messages with the
nested attribute actually set.  So even with this kernel fix to do
things correctly you still cannot instantiate a new 'strict'
nla_parse_nested based action such as act_ctinfo with iproute2's tc.

      Use correct return value on action creation: ACT_P_CREATED.

The use of incorrect return value could result in a situation where the
system thought a ctinfo module was listening but actually wasn't
instantiated correctly leading to an OOPS in tcf_generic_walker().

As an inexperienced developer I've learned that
copy/pasting/backporting/forward porting code correctly is hard.  If I
ever get to a developer conference I shall don the cone of shame.

      vhost_net: disable zerocopy by default · 098eadce
      Jason Wang authored 
      Vhost_net was known to suffer from HOL[1] issues which is not easy to
fix. Several downstream disable the feature by default. What's more,
the datapath was split and datacopy path got the support of batching
and XDP support recently which makes it faster than zerocopy part for
small packets transmission.

It looks to me that disable zerocopy by default is more
appropriate. It cold be enabled by default again in the future if we
fix the above issues.

      net: ipv4: move tcp_fastopen server side code to SipHash library · c681edae
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      Using a bare block cipher in non-crypto code is almost always a bad idea,
not only for security reasons (and we've seen some examples of this in
the kernel in the past), but also for performance reasons.

In the TCP fastopen case, we call into the bare AES block cipher one or
two times (depending on whether the connection is IPv4 or IPv6). On most
systems, this results in a call chain such as

  crypto_cipher_encrypt_one(ctx, dst, src)
    crypto_cipher_crt(tfm)->cit_encrypt_one(crypto_cipher_tfm(tfm), ...);
      aesni_encrypt
        kernel_fpu_begin();
        aesni_enc(ctx, dst, src); // asm routine
        kernel_fpu_end();

It is highly unlikely that the use of special AES instructions has a
benefit in this case, especially since we are doing the above twice
for IPv6 connections, instead of using a transform which can process
the entire input in one go.

We could switch to the cbcmac(aes) shash, which would at least get
rid of the duplicated overhead in *some* cases (i.e., today, only
arm64 has an accelerated implementation of cbcmac(aes), while x86 will
end up using the generic cbcmac template wrapping the AES-NI cipher,
which basically ends up doing exactly the above). However, in the given
context, it makes more sense to use a light-weight MAC algorithm that
is more suitable for the purpose at hand, such as SipHash.

Since the output size of SipHash already matches our chosen value for
TCP_FASTOPEN_COOKIE_SIZE, and given that it accepts arbitrary input
sizes, this greatly simplifies the code as well.

NOTE: Server farms backing a single server IP for load balancing purposes
      and sharing a single fastopen key will be adversely affected by
      this change unless all systems in the pool receive their kernel
      upgrades at the same time.

      tipc: include retrans failure detection for unicast · 6a6b5c8b
      Tuong Lien authored 
      In patch series, commit 9195948f ("tipc: improve TIPC throughput by
Gap ACK blocks"), as for simplicity, the repeated retransmit failures'
detection in the function - "tipc_link_retrans()" was kept there for
broadcast retransmissions only.

This commit now reapplies this feature for link unicast retransmissions
that has been done via the function - "tipc_link_advance_transmq()".

Also, the "tipc_link_retrans()" is renamed to "tipc_link_bc_retrans()"
as it is used only for broadcast.
